To measure these four areas, we administered a series of surveys and conductedclassroom observations.These data were collected at three points across the academic year: before the start of theprogram (pre), between the fall and spring semesters (mid), and at the end of the program (post).Due to differing completion rates of faculty members for each survey, the number of
